BIO
As an Artist, Ecologist and Healer, I draw upon growing up a working-class hippie, re-situating photography, writing and filmmaking into somatic, eco-feminist practices to contribute to wider ecologies of care.
I have exhibited extensively in spaces including LUX, Courtauld, Cafe Oto and Audio Foundation, NZ and have performed for Black Mountain College Museum, Creative Time, New York and completed art residencies in UK, Australia, and USA.
I was self-taught in art until aged thirty-three, have a Bachelors in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Photography, an MFA in Fine Art, from Slade School of Fine Art and I’m currently studying a Diploma in Environmental Humanities at The New School of the Anthropocene (NSoTA). I frequently speak, co-curate and teach on the connective tissue between art, ecology and psychology and spirituality with previous audiences including Chelsea College of Art, UCL Department of the Anthropocene and London Science Fiction Research Community.
I have co-curated exhibitions including ‘Women in Photography’ (2019) and ‘you’re mulchy green, you’re verdant matter’ (2019). The latter was a popular exhibition with an accompanying ten-day series of public-facing events organised by Lea Collet and myself, presenting feminist bodily, botanical and ecological subjectivities at Slade School of Fine Art.
Collaboration is an increasingly vital strand to my practice and I'm a lively member of two art collectives and a co-founder of The More-Than-Human Book club at Barbican library, which collaborated with ‘RE/SISTERS’ ecofeminism exhibition, 2023. I regularly participate in the expanded cinema group Deluxe Critical Forum, contributing to our last two expanded film and performance events, ‘Sunscreen’ (2023) and ‘Earthworks’ (2024).
I have lived and worked internationally, creatively and therapeutically amongst innovative and experimental communities, embracing marginalised populations and counter narratives, consistently seeking a breadth of understanding, empathy, inclusivity and care.
